Summary

This is a prospective randomized clinical study to be performed in pediatric patients under the age of 2 years who are undergoing surgical procedures requiring endotracheal intubation. Time to endotracheal intubation will be compared between patients intubated using a GlideScope® video laryngoscope, those intubated with a Storz DCI® video laryngoscope, and those intubated by standard direct laryngoscopy. The study hypothesis is that the time to endotracheal intubation will be decreased in the Storz DCI® video laryngoscope group when compared to the GlideScope® video laryngoscope group and standard laryngoscopy.
